I don’t know why I was going through there, but I found myself buried deep in the archives of my Flickr account last night.  And I just kept looking at these people and wondering about them.  Are they still this happy?  How much had we had to drink there?  Was that her first pregnancy or her second?  Was this before or after she got married?  It was such a blur.  But some cool things jumped out at me.

Like Mother (at my birthday party in 2007):

Like Daughter (at my wedding as my jr. bridesmaid in 2006):

A bazillion babies born:

(Matthew, 2006)

(Scout, 2006)

(Tony, 2007)

(Penelope, 2008)

Lots and Lots and LOTS of Happy People

Family in Unexpected Places

And I wonder how I could ever spend a moment of my life NOT feeling loved.

So I went through these old pics and decided .. it’s time to start taking more.

The next time I see you, encourage me to stop and take a picture with you.  Or two.  And one of them, we should be looking as goofy as possible.  Because that?  Is what is worth taking two hours to remember on a random Wednesday night.
